The camera apparatus 100 has a prism 101, a lens body 103, an image sensor 105, and an image sensor driving device 106 that drives the image sensor 105.
Next, the structure of each part of the present embodiment will be described assuming an XYZ orthogonal coordinate system composed of an X axis, a Y axis, and a Z axis orthogonal to each other. Here, the X axis is an axis in a direction in which incident light from a photographic subject enters the smartphone 109, the Z axis is an axis in a direction orthogonal to the X axis, and is an axis in the optical axis direction of the lens body 103, and in this embodiment, is set to a longitudinal direction of the housing of the smartphone 109. The Y axis is an axis in a direction orthogonal to the X axis and the Z axis.
As shown in fig. 2, incident light from a photographic subject enters the prism 101, and the optical axis is bent by 90 ° by the prism 101, and propagates in the +z direction. The incident light in the +z direction passes through the lens body 103 (not shown in fig. 2) and reaches the light receiving surface 107 of the image sensor 105 of the image sensor driving device 106. The image sensor 105 converts light guided through the lens body 103 into an image signal and outputs the image signal. The image sensor driving device 106 drives the image sensor 105 around a virtual rotation axis P passing through the center of the light receiving surface 107 and perpendicular to the light receiving surface 107. In general, the rotation axis P coincides with the optical axis (Z axis) of the lens body 103.

The top plate 11 and the bottom plate 91 have substantially the same dimensions, and are shorter in the X direction and longer in the Y direction. That is, the dimension in the thickness direction of the smart phone 109 is small. Slits 121 extending in the Y direction are provided at both ends of the side plate 12 on the +x side of the upper case 1 in the Y direction, respectively. Slits 921 extending in the Y direction are provided at both ends and the center of the side plate 92 on the-X side of the lower case 9 in the Y direction.
The imaging unit 2 includes: a sensor housing 21; a filter 22 fixed to the-Z side of the sensor housing 21; and an image sensor 105 fixed to the +z side of the sensor housing 21. The light receiving surface 107 of the image sensor 105 is provided inside surrounded by the sensor housing 21. The incident light passing through the lens body 103 passes through the filter 22 via the opening of the top plate 11 of the upper case 1, and is collected on the light receiving surface 107 of the image sensor 105. The movable portion circuit portion 3 is disposed on the +z side of the image sensor 105. The movable section circuit section 3 includes a circuit for supplying power to the image sensor 105, a circuit for supplying a control signal to the image sensor 105, and a circuit for receiving an image signal from the image sensor 105.
As shown in fig. 4 to 6, the movable portion circuit portion 3 includes a movable portion FPC (flexible printed circuit: flexible printed circuits) base 30, a 1 st FPC extension 31, and a 2 nd FPC extension 32, which are connected to the image sensor 105. The movable portion FPC base 30 in the movable portion circuit portion 3 extends parallel to the light receiving surface 107, is fixed to the-Z-side surface of the substantially rectangular plate material 4, and fixes the imaging portion 2.

The 1 st FPC extension 31 is provided in a strip shape on the +x side, is drawn out from the vicinity of the center of the +x side of the movable portion FPC base 30 to the +x side, is bent 180 degrees in the +z direction with the plate material 4 interposed therebetween, and is bent 90 degrees to draw out a predetermined length in the +z direction with the +y side end of the bent tip being the base end 31 p. The 1 st FPC extension 31 moves from the upper space to the lower space through a hole 78 of the base 7, which is a passage portion described later, and a notch 85 of the fixing circuit portion 8. Further, the leading end is bent by 90 degrees, extends in the +y direction, is folded at the fold-back portion 31r, extends to the outside of the image sensor driving device 106 as shown in fig. 4, and is fixed to the side plate 12 on the-Y side of the upper case 1.
The 2 nd FPC extension 32 is provided in a band shape on the-X side, is drawn out from the movable portion FPC base 30, is bent at the base end 32p, is moved from the upper space to the lower space through a hole 79 of the base 7, which is a passage portion described later, and a notch 86 of the fixing circuit portion 8, is folded at the fold-over portion 32r, and is provided so far in point symmetry with the 1 st FPC extension 31. The folded 2 nd FPC extension 32 is folded again at the +y direction end of the movable portion FPC base 30, extends to the outside of the image sensor driving device 106 as shown in fig. 3, and is fixed to the side plate 12 on the-Y side of the upper casing 1. The turnover parts 31r, 32r are preferably located near the Y-direction end of the movable part FPC base 30.
The 1 st FPC extension 31 is drawn out from the movable portion FPC base 30 so as to be received in the notch 44a provided in the plate material 4, and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 is drawn out from the movable portion FPC base 30 so as to be received in the notch 44b. Further, the 1 st FPC extension 31 is fixed to the inside of the folded portion 31r and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 is fixed to the inside of the folded portion 32r by the adhesives 31ra, 32ra, respectively.
In this way, in the present embodiment, since the 1 st FPC extension 31 and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 are led out from the surface on the +z side of the movable portion FPC base 30 in the +z direction, which is the optical axis direction, the projection area of the image sensor driving device 106 in the optical axis direction can be reduced.
In fig. 4, the plate material 4 is a rectangular metal plate smaller than the top plate 11. A center hole 45 is provided in the center of the plate material 4, and the center of the center hole 45 is the position of the rotation axis P. In the +z side surface of the plate material 4, the rotation center ball 43 is fitted in a center hole 45 at a position of the movable portion corresponding to the rotation axis P, and is fixed from the-Z side by welding. Further, 2 magnets 41a and 41b are fixed to the +z side surface of the plate material 4 so as to sandwich the rotation center ball 43 therebetween and be aligned in the Y direction. The fixed positions of the magnets 41a and 41b are point-symmetrical with respect to the rotation axis P. Further, in the two corners of the sheet material 4 on the +x+y side and the +x-Y side, the minute rectangular region of the sheet material 4 at that position is bent toward the +z side to form the protruding portion 42. Further, a notch 44a is formed in the +x side edge of the plate material 4, and a notch 44b is formed in the-X side edge.
The base 7 is a metal plate having an outer shape of a substantially rectangular shape having substantially the same size as the top plate 11 and the bottom plate 91, and is an insert molded product in which several portions protruding in the-Z direction are formed of resin on a surface on the-Z side described later. The base 7 has 3 protruding portions 721 protruding toward the +x side on the +x side. Further, 3 protrusions 722 protruding toward the-X side are provided on the-X side of the base 7. The protruding portions 721 at both ends are fitted and fixed in the slit 121 of the upper case 1, and the protruding portion 721 at the center is sandwiched and fixed between the side plate 12 of the upper case 1 and the side plate 92 of the lower case 9. The 3 protrusions 722 are fitted and fixed in the 3 slits 921 of the lower case 9. The internal space formed by the upper case 1 and the lower case 9 is thereby divided into an upper space above and a lower space below from the base 7. A part of the 1 st FPC extension and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 is accommodated in the lower space. A movable portion is accommodated in the upper space.
On the-Z side surface of the base 7, the ball receiving portions 71a are arranged so as to protrude in the-Z direction at the-X-Y side corners, and the ball receiving portions 71b are arranged so as to protrude in the-Z direction at the-x+y side corners. The ball receiving portion 71c is disposed so as to protrude in the-Z direction in the vicinity of the center of the edge portion on the +x side. The ball receiving portions 71a, 71b, 71c respectively protrude in a cylindrical shape, the bottom surface of which is higher than the other portions of the base 7, and 3 are each of the same height and are planes parallel to the lower surface of the plate material 4. Each of the ball receiving portions 71a, 71b, and 71c accommodates 1 support ball 5. The support balls 5 are of the same size and, in this embodiment, smaller than the centre of rotation balls 43, but may be of greater or the same size depending on the design. Each support ball 5 contacts the +z side surface of the plate material 4 and supports the movable portion.
Further, on the-Z side surface of the base 7, the 1 st support portion 72a is provided from the center of the-X side edge portion to the-Y direction position, and the 2 nd support portion 72b is provided from the center of the +x side edge portion to the +y direction position. The 1 st support portion 72a and the 2 nd support portion 72b are constituted by a cylindrical portion disposed on the-Z side surface of the base 7 and a small cylindrical portion protruding near the center of the upper surface of the cylindrical portion. Further, a stopper 73 is arranged at the center of the-Z side surface of the base 7. The stopper 73 has a concave portion surrounded by an annular side wall having 2 notched portions. In the base 7, a hole 75 is provided on the-Y side of the stopper 73, a hole 76 is provided on the +y side, a hole 78 is provided on the +x side, and a hole 79 is provided on the-X side.
The leaf spring 6 is a leaf spring that reaches the 2 nd end 61b from the 1 st end 61a through the central ball receiving portion 62, is bent in a wave shape, and has two zigzag portions arranged in point symmetry with the ball receiving portion 62 as the center. The 1 st end portion 61a and the 2 nd end portion 61b are circular in shape, and have a hole in the center thereof for receiving the small cylindrical portion of the 1 st support portion 72a or the 2 nd support portion 72b. The ball receiving portion 62 has a circular shape. In the present embodiment, the 1 st support portion 72a or the 2 nd support portion 72b has a small cylindrical portion inserted into each of the holes of the 1 st end portion 61a and the 2 nd end portion 61b of the leaf spring 6, and the leaf spring 6 is supported by the 1 st support portion 72a and the 2 nd support portion 72b. In this state, the ball receiving portion 62 is accommodated in the recess of the stopper portion 73, and the zigzag portion extends from the notch portion to the outside of the stopper portion 73. The ball receiving portion 62 has a ball receiving hole 63 at the center thereof for receiving the rotational center ball 43. The rotation shaft P passes through the center of the ball receiving hole 63. The ball receiving hole 63 has a circular shape with a diameter smaller than that of the rotation center ball 43. Thus, the inner peripheral edge of the ball receiving hole 63 supports the rotation center ball 43. Normally, the plate spring 6 and the rotation center ball 43 supported by it are not in contact with the stopper 73, and the stopper 73 serves as the stopper ball receiving portion 62 when an impact or the like is received.
Further, on the-Z side surface of the base 7, two corner portions of the ball receiving portion, that is, the corner portions on the +x-Y side and the +x+y side, are not provided among the four corners of the base 7, and a cylindrical resin reservoir 77 for storing a resin having viscoelasticity is arranged. The resin having viscoelasticity is a resin of a so-called gel damper. The two protruding portions 42 of the plate material 4 are formed at positions facing the resin reservoir 77, and are inserted into the viscoelastic resin in the resin reservoir 77. When the movable portion is rotationally driven, the resin having viscoelasticity in the resin reservoir 77 functions as a damping material that suppresses vibration of the movable portion via the protruding portion 42.
In the present embodiment, in order to rotatably support the plate material 4, the ball receiving portions 71a, 71b, and 71c and the 3 support balls 5 are provided in a substantially triangular region formed by the side of-X and the center portion of +x between the plate material 4 and the base 7. The resin reservoir 77 that receives the protruding portion 42 of a part of the folded plate material 4 is disposed at two corners on the +x side outside the region. As described above, in the present embodiment, since the structure for supporting and the structure for suppressing vibration are effectively arranged, the image sensor driving device 106 can be miniaturized.
In the present embodiment, the plate material 4 and the base 7 are rectangular, and the protruding portion 42 is formed at a corner of the plate material 4. As shown in fig. 5, the folds 42r of the protruding portion 42 are parallel to the long side of the plate material 4. When the movable portion is rotationally driven about the rotation axis P, the protruding portion 42 of the viscoelastic resin inserted into the resin reservoir 77 moves in a direction orthogonal to the surface of the protruding portion 42. Therefore, the area of the protruding portion 42 receiving the reaction force from the resin having viscoelasticity is maximized. Thus, the gel damping material can maximize the effect of suppressing vibration of the movable portion.
In fig. 4, the fixing portion circuit portion 8 has a substantially rectangular fixing portion FPC base 89 smaller than the top plate 11 and a 3 rd FPC extension 88 led out from the fixing portion FPC base 89. Coils 81a and 81b are fixed side by side in the +y direction on the-Z side surface of the FPC base 89 for the fixing portion. These coils 81a and 81b are opposed to the magnets 41a and 41b, and are point-symmetrical with respect to the rotation axis P of the movable portion. Further, hall elements 82a and 82b for detecting the positions of the magnets 41a and 41b are disposed inside the coils 81a and 81b, respectively. Further, on the-Z side surface of the fixing portion FPC base 89, a control IC83 for controlling the hall elements 82a and 82b is disposed outside the coil 81 a. In addition, on the +z side surface of the FPC base 89 for the fixing portion, the yokes 84a and 84b are fixed at positions corresponding to the magnets 41a and 41b, respectively.
The hole 75 provided in the base 7 accommodates the coil 81a and the control IC83 on the FPC base 89 for the fixing portion, and the hole 76 accommodates the coil 81b on the circuit portion 8 for the fixing portion. The fixing portion is fixed to the +Z side surface of the base 7 with the-Z side surface of the FPC base 89. The magnets 41a and 41b are thereby opposed to the coils 81a and 81b, the hall elements 82a and 82b, and the yokes 84a and 84b, respectively.
In the present embodiment, for example, when the N pole is on the +x side and the S pole is on the-X side in the +z side of the magnets 41a and 41b, the magnetic flux from the N pole of the magnets 41a and 41b passes through the linear portion extending in the Y direction of each coil winding on the +x side of the coils 81a and 81b, reaches the yokes 84a and 84b, and further passes through the linear portion extending in the Y direction of each coil winding on the-X side of the coils 81a and 81b, and reaches the S pole of the magnets 41a and 41b. In the present embodiment, the magnets 41a and 41b and the yokes 84a and 84b constitute the 1 st biasing portion, and the attractive force generated between the magnets 41a and 41b and the yokes 84a and 84b becomes a biasing force that presses the movable portion against the fixed portion.
In the present embodiment, the driving unit is composed of the magnets 41a and 41b and the coils 81a and 81b, and the movable unit is rotationally driven by causing a current in the reverse direction to flow through the coils 81a and 81b to generate a torque around the rotation axis P. To be more specific, when a current flows through the coil 81a, a force is generated to move the coil 81a along the +x side due to interaction between the current and the magnetic field generated by the magnet 41a, and the magnet 41a of the movable portion is driven along the-X side by a reaction force of the force. When a current in the opposite direction to the coil 81a flows through the coil 81b, a force is generated to move the coil 81b along the-X side by the interaction between the current and the magnetic field generated by the magnet 41b, and the magnet 41b of the movable part is driven along the +x side by the reaction force of the force. Thus, the movable portion having the magnets 41a and 41b is rotationally driven about the rotation axis P. The control IC83 detects the positions of the magnets 41a and 41b based on the voltages generated by the hall elements 82a and 82b due to the magnetic fields of the magnets 41a and 41b, and controls the currents flowing through the coils 81a and 81b.
The 3 rd FPC extension 88 extends from the-Y side end of the fixing portion FPC base 89 to the outside of the image sensor driving device 106 as shown in fig. 3, and is led out in the-Z direction, and is fixed to the-Y side plate 12 of the upper casing 1. The 3 rd FPC extension 88 has a distal end connected to an external device, and a circuit for supplying power from the external device to the hall elements 82a and 82b and the control IC83 and a circuit for transmitting and receiving signals between the external device and the control IC83 are formed in the 3 rd FPC extension 88. Further, a signal circuit from the hall elements 82a and 82b to the control IC83 and a circuit for supplying power from the control IC83 to the coils 81a and 81b are formed in the FPC base 89 for the fixing portion.
The 2 holes 78 and 79 of the base 7 are long in the X direction, and each form a passage portion through which the portion of the 1 st FPC extension 31 or the 2 nd FPC extension 32 led out in the +z direction passes. The circuit portion 8 for a fixing portion has a notch 85 in the center of the +x side and a notch 86 in the center of the-X side, and the notches 85 and 86 are long in the X direction, and form a passage portion through which the portion of the 1 st FPC extension 31 or the 2 nd FPC extension 32 led out in the +z direction passes. The +X side has a notch 87 at the end in the-Y direction for allowing the 1 st FPC extension 31 to pass through. The hole 78, the hole 70, the notch 85, and the notch 86 serving as the passage portion may be formed by a hole or a notch, and may be formed by a size that does not interfere with the movement of the 1 st FPC extension 31 and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 when the movable portion rotates.
As shown in fig. 8 and 9, in the present embodiment, the plate material 4 as the movable portion is supported by 3 support balls 5 accommodated in the ball receiving portions 71a, 71b, and 71c of the base 7 as the fixed portion. The plate material 4 is biased toward the base 7 by the attractive force between the magnet 41a and the yoke 84a and the attractive force between the magnet 41b and the yoke 84 b. Thus, the light receiving surface 107 of the image sensor 105 as the movable portion is determined to be parallel to the plane formed by the upper end portions of the 3 support balls 5. The image sensor driving device 106 is adjusted so that the normal direction of the light receiving surface 107 coincides with the optical axis direction of the lens body 103.
On the other hand, in the present embodiment, a rotation center ball 43 as a fulcrum member is fixed to the +z side surface of the plate material 4 as the movable portion. The leaf spring 6 as the 2 nd biasing portion is fixed at both ends to the 1 st support portion 72a and the 2 nd support portion 72b of the base 7 as the fixing portion, and the spherical lower portion of the rotation center ball 43 is in contact with the inner peripheral edge of the ball receiving hole 63 of the ball receiving portion 62 in the center of the leaf spring 6. The leaf spring 6 is provided so as to flex the ball receiving portion 62 slightly on the +z side than the 1 st support portion 72a and the 2 nd support portion 72b. That is, the rotation center ball 43 is biased to the-Z side by the plate spring 6. Thereby, the center axis connecting the center of the ball receiving hole 63 of the leaf spring 6 and the center of the center hole 45 of the plate material 4, that is, the center axis connecting the lower end and the upper end of the rotation center ball 43 becomes the rotation axis P.
Here, since the plate spring 6 is an elastic body and the ball receiving hole 63 has a circular shape, the plate spring 6 has a centering function of keeping the center axis of the rotation center ball 43 at a fixed position with respect to the base 7. The urging force due to the attractive force between the magnets 41a and 41b and the yokes 84a and 84b as the 1 st urging portion, the urging force due to the leaf spring 6 as the 2 nd urging portion, and the driving force due to the magnets 41a and 41b and the coils 81a and 81b as the driving portion are set so as to be able to exert the mutual action. That is, the biasing force due to the 1 st biasing portion is set to be larger than the biasing force due to the 2 nd biasing portion so that the support ball 5 does not float. The driving unit provides a driving force capable of rotating the movable unit with respect to the fixed unit against the urging force of the 1 st urging unit. The biasing force of the 2 nd biasing section has a biasing force that keeps the rotation center ball 43 at the position of the rotation shaft P even when the biasing force of the 1 st biasing section and the driving force of the driving section are present.
As shown in fig. 6, when the movable portion FPC base 30 is rotated about the rotation axis P as a part of the movable portion, the base end portion 31P of the 1 st FPC extension 31 is deformed to the turnover portion 31r, and the base end portion 32P of the 2 nd FPC extension 32 is deformed to the turnover portion 32 r. Reaction forces, i.e., restoring forces that restore the deformation to the original state, are generated in the 1 st FPC extension 31 and the 2 nd FPC extension 32, respectively, but the 1 st FPC extension 31 and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 are provided so as to be point-symmetrical with respect to the rotation axis P, and thus cancel each other out, and it is difficult for reaction forces to occur that move the rotation center ball 43 from the rotation axis P.
In the movable portion circuit portion 3 of the present embodiment, the 1 st FPC extension 31 and the 2 nd FPC extension 32 are led out in the +z direction from the +z side surface of the movable portion FPC base 30, but as in the movable portion circuit portion 3a shown in fig. 7, both edge portions of the movable portion FPC base 30 may be base end portions 31pa and 32pa. The 1 st FPC extension 31a and the 2 nd FPC extension 32a are led out in the +z direction from positions on the +x side and the-X side that are point-symmetrical with respect to the rotation axis P. The 1 st FPC extension 31a extends therefrom in the +y direction in a band shape and extends in the-X direction after bending by 90 ° at the +x+y side corner, and further extends in the +y direction after bending by 90 ° at the-x+y side corner. The 2 nd FPC extension 32a is arranged to be point-symmetrical with the 1 st FPC extension 31 a. The movable portion circuit portion 3a has a rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole, and the movable portion FPC base 30 forms a bottom portion of the same rectangular parallelepiped, and the 1 st FPC extension 31a and the 2 nd FPC extension 32a form side portions of the same rectangular parallelepiped.
In this embodiment, since the 1 st FPC extension 31a and the 2 nd FPC extension 32a are also provided in point symmetry with respect to the rotation axis P, even if the 1 st FPC extension 31a and the 2 nd FPC extension 32a deform with the rotation of the movable portion, the reaction forces cancel each other, and it is difficult to generate a reaction force that moves the rotation center ball 43 from the rotation axis P. Further, since the 1 st FPC extension 31a and the 2 nd FPC extension 32a are easily deformed with respect to the displacement accompanying the rotation of the movable portion, the absolute value of the reaction force can be reduced.
In addition, the-x+y side corner of the 1 st FPC extension 31a may be bent in the-Y direction and may be arranged side by side with the 2 nd FPC extension 32a. The base end portions 31pa and 32pa may be provided at any positions as long as they are edge portions at positions symmetrical with respect to the rotation axis P.
The above is a detailed configuration of the present embodiment. The image sensor driving device 106 in the present embodiment includes: a fixing part; a movable portion that supports the image sensor 105 that receives the incident light passing through the lens body 103, and is rotatable with respect to the fixed portion about an axis of a rotation axis P that passes through the light receiving surface 107 of the image sensor 105 and is orthogonal to the light receiving surface 107; the rotation center ball 43 is a fulcrum member disposed on the rotation shaft P; 3 support balls 5 arranged so as to surround the rotation center ball 43; magnets 41a and 41b and yokes 84a and 84b as the 1 st urging portion urge the plate material 4 via 3 support balls 5 in a direction to push the plate material 4 as the movable portion to the base 7 as the fixed portion; a leaf spring 6 as a 2 nd urging portion for sandwiching and pressing the rotation center ball 43 between the base 7 as a fixed portion and the plate material 4 as a movable portion; and magnets 41a and 41b and coils 81a and 81b as driving parts for rotationally driving the movable part with respect to the fixed part. The rotation center ball 43 is sandwiched between the base 7 and the plate material 4 and pressed by the plate spring 6, thereby determining the rotation axis position, and the support ball 5 determines the direction of the rotation surface. Thus, the positional accuracy of the rotation center of the movable portion can be improved.
In the present embodiment, the 1 st urging portion is constituted by the magnets 41a and 41b fixed to the plate material 4 as the movable portion and the yokes 84a and 84b provided to the circuit portion 8 for the fixed portion as the fixed portion, but the magnets may be fixed to the fixed portion and the yokes may be fixed to the movable portion. The leaf spring may be interposed between the movable portion and the fixed portion as the 1 st urging portion. Further, a ball receiving portion such as a ball receiving hole for receiving the rotation center ball 43 may be provided in the plate material 4 of the movable portion.
In the present embodiment, the ball receiving hole 63 is provided in the ball receiving portion 62 of the leaf spring 6, but the ball receiving hole 63 is not necessarily required for the ball receiving portion 62, and the aligning function may be provided. For example, a tapered or mortar-shaped recess may be formed in the ball receiving portion 62 by drawing or the like, and the recess may receive the rotation center ball 43. The rotation center ball 43 may be fixed to the fixed portion, not to the movable portion, and the leaf spring 6 may be fixed to the movable portion. The rotation center ball 43 is not necessarily a ball, and may be formed in a hemispherical shape and fixed to a movable portion or a fixed portion.
